Do you think we are alone in the universe or do you think the universe is full of life?
This is something I often think about. Nature doesn't do things once. If something can happen then it will happen again. I think there is extra terrestrial life, however it is a little worrying that we have no sign of it yet. Maybe advanced civilisations capable of emitting radio waves or other such communications, only arise now and again. So it might be that we are the most advanced civilisation in our local area.
All in all, Hubble reveals an estimated 100 billion galaxies in the universe or so, but this number is likely to increase to about 200 billion as telescope technology in space improves. Surely with 200 billion galaxies and countless planets within them, life must be in some of them.
I do fear that if extra terrestrials finds us that they will be hostile. Humans are apex predators. With our intelligence and weapons we can hunt, kill and eat anything we want on our planet. Imagine an alien species far more advanced than us visiting Earth. It could be the end of days.
Finally, how do you think finding extra terrestrial life may impact on religions? After all, holy books tell us god made man in his own image and that we are divine. So why make aliens? Will the religious just back track and say aliens are all part of gods plan? Probably.
